When it comes to the Epson EcoTank ET-2800, you’re going to struggle to get more printers for your money. Yes, there are cheaper models out there—but we think this is the pick of the more affordable options in terms of how many compromises you have to make.
Sure, it’s not the most advanced printer you’re going to find, but it does all the basics rather well, and that extends to scanning and copying as well as printing. The use of ink bottles rather than ink cartridges lowers running costs over the long term as well.
Colors are well handled, details are crisp, and it’s a printer that’s simple to set up and configure, too. On the downside, the printing speeds are going to test your patience somewhat, but think of the money you’ve saved on this while you’re waiting.
